The OMRON D6T Thermal Sensors are based on an infrared sensor for contactless surface temperature measurement. They use a thermopile element which absorbs radiated energy from the target object. With suitable calibration, the temperature accuracy of the D6T sensors can reach up to ±0.2°C.
Besides people detection and energy-saving, industrial productivity and safety are also enhanced by thermal sensing. By instantly detecting any unusual changes, the D6T can help to prevent factory line stoppages and overheating.
